[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2576521, member: 7999"] I talked with a Smith yesterday about number of barrel groves. He told me that if you are using a 6 flute reamer on a 5 groove barrel that when the reamer flute engages a land it is not supported on the opposite side and causes the nose of the reamer to flex. Resulting in an out of round throat. Basically you would wind up with a 5 sided throat out of round. Anyway, not to derail, but wondering if this applies to your situation?
